SD5270 : Another blot on the landscape

taken 9 years ago, near to Capernwray, Lancashire, England

Another blot on the landscape
Another blot on the landscape
An extension to the caravan park has caused the public footpath to be diverted westwards. When I was last along this path five years ago the caravans were well hidden in the woods to the right. Most of the path from Over Kellet north to Capernwray Road was through open pastureland with lovely views. Why do council planners allow this kind of thing to go on? Presumably, the caravaneers greatly appreciate the views of open countryside they now have. Little thought appears ever to be afforded to people who prefer to walk through unsullied countryside.
